Attending births and
supporting familiesin the
greater Portland metro area and SW Washington...

The journey through pregnancy, labor, birth and parenthood is very
personal and deserves individualized care. One of my passions is
to gently support families through this journey. How this
transition goes has a deep
impact on the child as well as both parents and the extended
family. I mostly attend homebirths, including many waterbirths,
but birth centers are also an option. If coming to my office in
central Portland is logistically difficult, please ask me about home
prenatal visits.

Another of my passions is supporting new
parents through normal child
development and the normal, "healthy" diseases of children.
Supporting
the health of the parents is a natural extension of this work. As
a Naturopathic Physician I have many tools at my disposal to assist in
healing, including herbal medicines, homeopathy, diet and nutrition. I
spend time with my patients and offer very personalized, continuity of
care for families and individuals.
